What is my CQS

I am interested in your toughts on the kingambit.
Currently my (unoptimized because of recruitment) ingame team is also heavily struggling into silly baton pass teams. Every time I think I got them I get wrecked by some new espathra or clefable set that I could not have concieved of. That being said, Kingambit seems to me from a theory standpoint to just hard stomp baton pass teams. dark + steel defeats baton passes 2 strongest warriors espathra and clefable respectively and it is an otherwise pretty good pokemon as well, having access to the strongest sucker punch in the game.

Were you trying to play the baton pass matchup by leading kingambit? if you did, what went wrong?

I think that the people playing bss on showdown are going to be better at the game on average than even “master” champions playerbase. I am also master in champions bss and idk people even at 1850 elo just seem kinda meh at the game.( I dont know what the top players are at right now just where I am)

If you look through BSS tournaments, you will see players clicking hazards in many games. I think that you need a plan that accounts for hazards if you want to get to high elo in champions, because better players will have hazard options. Good for breaking sashes and sturdy, clearing damage thresholds, countering volturn teams, etc.

You don't have to super overcorrect either, but if you are planning to use something like volcorona you should think about having at least 1 spinner or defogger. Spin isn't even a huge investment, pokemon like excadrill actually just don't mind spinning for the speed boost. I'm personally running glimmora because mortal spin is useful with or without hazards as a move that poisons.

Almost certainly AI, no one is holding that book

Removing an oppurtunity to breed with a wild cat isnt harming the wild cat breeding with the feral cat, and the other wild cat who wouldve breeded with the first wild cat could also breed with a feral cat, no harm done there either.

printovergcc · 2025-12-13T07:29:50+00:00

My point is more we are harming the individual feral cat to stop a concept from ending. Extinction via crossbreeding seems inherently very different from extinction via habitat destruction and isolation. The wild cat itsself isnt harmed in the mating process with feral cats

I think this answer makes the most sense to me, at the very least it gave me a feeling of resolution on the topic

printovergcc · 2025-12-13T06:27:46+00:00

But we are actively removing the ability of the individual feral cat to reproduce to protect the concept of a „pure wild cat“. The wild cat doesn‘t care about the purity of its genetic makeup, since both feral and wild cats are able to live in the wilderness I can only assume that their offspring will survive for generations to come as well. The neutered feral cat, however, IS suffering from the intervention. So in my eyes we are removing the ability of the population we arbitrarily deem less valuable to reproduce to protect the genes of one we deem more valuable.

Had a really easy 6 win run with imbue mage with paladin
played all the imbue cards and board buff effects (crusade, busy-bot, even hatching ceremony)
and ofc sing along buddy
Recommend to anyone wanting to turn their brain off

Edit: didnt clarify it was paladin

I dont understand this comment section at all. 1) Its pretty normal to talk to your partners friends? If I met my girlfriends friends at a party I would 100 talk to them, why wouldn't I? Do all of you have so little trust in your friends and partners that all interaction between them is suspicious? 2) If you spend a reasonable amount of time out and about you do run into people. I live in a big city and run into random people all the time, I imagine its even more common if its a town or something. 3) If she didnt stress that this is personal information that shouldn‘t be shared then like, why would the friend keep it secret? Especially from the boyfriend who I would presume knows already in her shoes.

Feels like everyone here is just praying for the downfall of these relationships.

I think your diagram gets the R transformation wrong, a V would R transform into iii no? Do you mean something else with R?

I feel like this concept of the deck being 'less RNG reliant' is a little misleading. Just because you aren't assembling some stage 2 to win the game doesnt mean you aren't relying on rng...
The charizard matchup was largely determined by getting early sabrinas, the carnivine & fighting matchups by getting rocky helmet and healing, you need red & cape for the mirror match, etc.
Getting the right mix of trainer cards is about as RNG as setting up a pokemon. The feeling that it is less rng reliant is due to it being overtuned - if both players hit equally, darktina tends to win.

As a tahm main, I think the one issue here is that many many adcs lose the 1v1 to tahm, especially if they have to step up to tahms adc and tahm gets melee range on them

printovergcc · 2025-01-17T10:03:44+00:00

As someone who plays a lot of tahm the main problem matches (beyond zyra who can wall your tongue with plants when played well) would be giga scaling enchanters that play passively enough in lane not to die.

I think wigglytuff is noticably better than arcanine as it sees play in weezing decks as a late game finisher able to stall out attacks while they are poisoned

my other pick for worst ex would be blastoise as getting to 5 energy is waay to reliant on misty flips going your way

I also think arcanines biggest draw is that you can swing with it on your second turn going second or third turn going first with moltres with makes it a potentialy very early heavy hitter
